President Donald Trump said in a Sunday-morning phone call that he was “not joking” about a third term, adding that “it is far too early to think about it.”

    My bet, they roll back Presidential term limits, Obama returns and vanquishes Trump, then Obama implements or reimplements many fascist programs with vaguely social dem-y sounding language to prepare for an ultimately futile war with China.

        His Grand Bargain, that would’ve cut payments, was his low-key major goal for his legacy. Fucker.

          The nature of politics is that it’s very hard to get hard things done.

      Unless he vanquishes Trump in single combat, it won’t hapoen because the Republicans will have entirely captured the voting system

      Obama got his bag and the longer he stays off the radar, the better he looks. No way he wades into another campaign.

        Idk, I look at US politics like kayfabe. When interest is waning (consent machine is failing, citizens are thinking organizing instead of voting, etc.) what better way to regain interest than by having the surprise comeback of a beloved character. Esp to sell the narrative that “that evil Trump has been defeated, all is right in the world and we can all breath a sigh of relief back at brunch”

          He isn’t the worst possible choice they could make so it seems unlikely at this point.
